3rd gear is good to about 80 mph, so you'd have to be going considerably faster than that in 4th to get into trouble by going back down to 3rd, wouldn't you? Dunno how sensitive this engine is, I guess if it's particularly fragile, maybe it doesn't take much.

Or is it the immediate acceleration of the engine to 6000 rpm rather than high rpm itself that's causing it to break?
